Nashi, Moon's Legacy and Tlincalli Hunter

Asked by Swebb87 1 year ago

Nashi's ability exiles a legendary or rat creature from the graveyard and copies it and you can cost the copy. Does the copy exist in exile and therefore you can cast it for 0 using tlincalli?

You exile the card and then create a copy of it, so the copy is created in exile. you will be able to pay instead of the mana cost of the spell.

707.12. An effect that instructs a player to cast a copy of an object (and not just copy a spell) follows the rules for casting spells, except that the copy is created in the same zone the object is in and then cast while another spell or ability is resolving. Casting a copy of an object follows steps 601.2a–h of rule 601, “Casting Spells,” and then the copy becomes cast. Once cast, the copy is a spell on the stack, and just like any other spell it can resolve or be countered.
